    I use the darkreader plugin for sites that don't have dark mode and have it set on a schedule. Sometimes it makes text hard to read as it gets the color inversion wrong, but overall it's pretty good. https://darkreader.org/ You can easily disable it for certain sites with a single click (marked in red). The on/off buttons are for the entire plugin. The "configure automation" is where you set the schedule. [image: 1773852264553-7703688b-119f-42df-a8b4-f54dac6f40b8-image.jpeg]

    My storage is limited, so I keep fewer backups. I almost always click "Skip Backup" since I prefer manually backing things up. Since so much is manual, I tend to lose track of which might have been backed up recently. So, then I need to click on the Backups, wait for that to load, see when the most recent one was and if it's worth skipping the backup again or if I need to back up. If I need to back up, I actually also almost always do that separate from the Update process. Why? In the past it sometimes times out, or fails, or just something goes wonky. Is it my system? Maybe? But this is what I'm working with. After that back up I then need to click on Updates and finally update. So, it would save me some time to hover over Backups and see when the most recent one is.

    I’m thinking the same as @robi. I tried asking Google Gemini to propose a design that surfaces key actions like Start, Stop, Restart, and Retry Task. Directly on the main page, so we don’t have to open the app just to access them. Grid view: [image: Google-Gemini-03-16-2026-08-00-AM.png] List View: [image: Google-Gemini-03-16-2026-07-58-AM.png]

    @girish said: @CaeruleusAqua are you asking about custom bcc feature or custom haraka plugin? Custom haraka plugins won't be supported, this is not on the roadmap. Bcc feature might be. For 9.2, it will be primarily a mail feature release. looking forward to 9.2 now

    @girish IMO, the version information wouldn't matter for a notification email. I'd just like to know when a manual updates required

    @lanhild I see. The mysql multipleDatabase feature was written initially for phabricator, which is now long gone. AFAIK, no app uses multiple mysql databases. Same for postgres (though maybe synapse matrix + the user auth is a candidate, not sure).

    Something else I'd like to be able to easily do as part of this is to email every user and mailbox on the server letting them know about upcoming maintenance.

    @nebulon it's better than it was, but still not as good as it used to be pre v9. I'm in the middle of a server migration. For some reason one of my Volumes on the new server didn't mount properly and so all the apps that were using it weren't running. I filtered by Not responding. Clicked on configure on one. Then repair. That worked. Now I want to get back to the list of Not responding apps. If I click on My Apps they are no longer filtered. I can click the browser Back button, but I have to click it twice (more if I've looked elsewhere in the app config) to get back to where I was. I used to just be able to click on <- Back to My Apps and go immediately there. That was easier and better. The only downside was it only worked for the drop-down filters. Hitting the back button multiple times on 9.1 works with search based filters which is good, but I still want to be able to get back there with one click (and tbh to not have to use the browser back button too).

    @nebulon said in Point arbitrary domains to a cloudron app?: is there a reason to not make that domain known by Cloudron? Sort of as fbartels described: you might think of it as a 'customer' domain, so they use the service running on Cloudron and not Cloudron itself, therefore you might want to provide a way to add domains within your deployed app. I've noticed that DNS misconfigurations can stall or block deploys because it just keeps retrying, and I would like to avoid exposure to that; would the 'manual' provider change this? But I realize I'm a bit self-contradictory because of course I also would try to automatically configure certificates for their domains so they don't have to.

    @inibudi , it is; but I've optimized it down to a single crontab entry: crontab -l 48 2 * * * /bin/sh -c '[ -f /var/run/reboot-required ] && sudo shutdown -r now'

    @marcusquinn said in TLS Passthrough option for apps requiring end-to-end TLS: Matrix Synapse -- federation requires the server to present its own TLS certificate for server-to-server authentication. I think we can already do matrix federation, no?
